If only I could show you the one terrible photo that my husband took of me pregnant, I am sure I would convince you Why pay for maternity photos? I was near the end of my pregnancy, miserable and surprise surprise my husband didn't feel like taking a photo of me. I look grumpy, my hair is wet and my pose is like a mug shot.
I regret it of course.
But back when I got pregnant every maternity photo I saw made me CRINGE. There were a lot of awkward poses and weird backdrops.
Fast forward to today and things have changed. I am here to tell you Why pay for maternity photos.
And there are just so many reasons!
It may feel long.... but it's fleeting.
My pregnancies felt like they lasted years, not months. I was not a happy pregnant lady. I was SO tired I used to go to the bathroom at work, rest my head against the side of the little toilet cubicle and sleep. I couldn't wait to have my babies. Fast forward to today and I can't believe I was once pregnant. What I would give to have beautiful photos of my bump where I looked radiant instead of miserable.
Posing is everything
Do you wonder how those celeb maternity photos look amazing? It's because they know how to pose lady! The right poses are important all the time and even more so when you are pregnant. Why? Because you want to show off your bump, for one, but you also want to have beautiful shapes. It's all about the shape! I'll pose you from your toes to your nose.
It's a treat
Some people go to the spa, some get a massage and some get maternity photos. I can even recommend a hair and makeup artist to visit you at your home before hand so you can feel fabulous.
These photos are not just for you
Hey lady - there's an entire baby in there and they are going to want to know what their mom looked like, what they looked like in the belly and what life was like before they arrived in general. You are giving a gift for generations.
I Offer More
In addition to the posing, I'll direct you to the best light and create magical moments. I also have maternity dresses on hand and a wardrobe stylist to help you pick the best one or direct you to others if they aren't your style.
Why pay for maternity photos? Because the end product will be so much more than a quick snap on your iPhone.
I offer maternity sessions in-home, outdoors (seasonal) and in my St-Henri studio. If you'd like details please contact me.
